Yesterday was one of the saddest days for all bachelors, when it was confirmed that the most beatiful, kind and smart woman in the world got married.

Its true that many people saw it coming, but it is nevertheless painy to see it happen finally.

Not everything is lost, with me out of the market, more fish should be avaible in the pond :)

Of course it is the two of you that make this a great picture, but the photographer is no slouch either.
Absolutely a great picture and a great post. Thank you for putting it up and the very best to the lovely couple.

If I had known you could get nine upvotes for displaying a wedding picture, I would have done it years ago :)

I voted the post :) Fun way to announce the wedding. My first thought was it would be some "Sad day for the bachelors - one of us has deserted" post. Was nice to discover how he put the problem.

I am trying to keep in touch, but the browser at Sheraton hotel is forbidding me to enter " interesting bridge hands forum", it says that there is a "nasty" word written there lol. Damn, I'll ask my wife what else can we do to spend our time :S
